Green Line LRT shortlists companies for civil works construction packages
AI Article Summary
The City of Calgary has announced a shortlist of companies for civil works construction packages for the 2026-2031 segment of the Green Line LRT - SE Project. This selection process identifies constructions firms eligible to submit proposals for five major infrastructure projects. Phase 1 of the Green Line LRT, running from Shepard in the southeast to Downtown Calgary, is fully funded with contributions from various governmental levels. The project already has construction underway and expects additional tenders worth over $3 billion to be released by 2025 and 2026.
What This Means for Canadian Contractors
This project shows how strategic prequalification of construction firms can streamline the tendering process and optimize project timelines. For Canadian builders, this means early engagement opportunities, potential long-term partnerships, and increased awareness when planning for workforce and resource allocation. As significant funding and multiple tenders are expected, companies can anticipate opportunities for collaboration and regional economic impact.
